ECCO introduced the new QUANT-U sneakers this weekend at Andreas Murkudis. The shoe label is often recognized for its premium leather construction across its expansive range of goods.

Previously the duo works together to create a premium collection for men and the latest highlights unisex designs. Notably, the midsoles are custom 3D-printed using silicone materials and feature data individually to itself after going through a learning algorithm. The technically informed QUANT-U sneakers are available for purchase at Andreas Murkudis' store until April 30th.
